Ingredients

1kg beef short ribs

For the marinade

5tbsp soy sauce

3tbsp honey

2tbsp sesame oil

2tbsp mirin

150ml apple juice

1 small onion, sliced

5 garlic cloves, crushed

5cm piece fresh root ginger, grated

Method

To make the marinade, mix all the ingredients together and season with plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Put the beef short ribs into a large bowl or ziplock bag, then pour over the marinade and leave for 24-48 hrs in the fridge.

When you’re ready to cook the ribs, heat the oven to 150C. Put the beef and marinade into a large roasting tin, big enough so that the ribs can sit side by side. Cover with foil and bake for 2 hrs 30 mins until tender. Take them out of the marinade and put on the barbecue or under the grill and cook for a few more mins until they are charred and crispy.
